My 2nd row (passenger side seat)(40% side ) vibrates sometimes... bugs the crap out of me. My 80 with 35's never had this type of vibration. The tires are newer stock Michelin's with about 15k on them. As near as I can tell no prior wrecks....I purchased this Cruiser around a year ago with 45k miles.

I can also see a nut...with a bit of thread sticking out in both rear wheel wells. I have been checking out other local 06/07's and all of them are the same. Could this cause the vibration?

If I fold the seat back down the vibration goes away. Also if somebody is sitting there are no vibes.
 
I solved that problem completely: I removed the middle row :D.

The issue with mine had to do with the latch and the rubber bumpers on the bottom of the seats. I used washers to add a little height to the bottom seat bumpers...thus eliminating the slop in the latch connection. Not sure if I had the same issue as your's or not...

Felt pads for furniture legs work perfectly.

What do you think about laying down some Gates Red Rubber?

It comes in 1/16, 1/8, 3/16, 1/4 sheets.

With the felt pads can you get them to stay on permanently?
